" It's."
" Welcome to pixel perfect with -- on the show right so you would never have the mind. I think might sponsor code daddy dot com. The guys that have plans started as little as three dollars and 99 cents a month that's it you -- your web hosting with them for. Includes 99 point 9% up time within 24. Sevenths support and free access to metropolis. The place. Deep place to install over thirty free applications sure to help you get the most from your whole web hosting plan. And if you entered a code pixels six that is seen it on the screen. When you check it out. When you check out and you'll save an additional 20%. That's 20% on any twelve or 24 month plan that you yet. Really good deals should definitely check him out and I recently went to check a master. Problem for phone lines that -- check it out and see all the stuff that's too bad very good service very good deals. Now. Let's get into Photoshop. Back quite a few people request. Things about. Read it. I don't there and do retouched. It's not gonna do a couple of re touching jobs now and try to give you an idea of how things get worked out. Now one of -- is based on a commercial piece that I had to do the other one is based on the pain because it deals with a reflection. Welcome kind of deal with reflection. Several comes from some reflections on a sphere. Like Bruce an Australian -- currently living in Sweden he want to know how to create reflections months here. So these two things I want attack from the show the first what I want to do is right here at two glasses. To very simple glasses. The problem with these two glasses that there what do -- But when the photographer shot the shot. He did put the water in there. You need a prop. You need something that tells what something it it's always nice is just like a nice plate of food restaurant -- that little. Coalition that you don't need that they would make them look pretty. So -- capable water goblet of this is something you do for jobs in the water and it. That way they know right off the bat what kind of a passes it is a red wine is -- vote for soda notes for one. Now I have to put the water and after the fact. A couple of things to consider and again study reality is how you learn these things are to the plastic food with water myself what exactly was going -- While background comes through. Background shows through and it also gets reversed. So now we look at the background here is -- windows -- out there. It's a -- the scene and it's needed clarification we really can't pull anything -- from back there to try to use it. So what I did is I looked around for another picture. That had a glass that was filled and here's one right here. Right did that -- course that's white wine it's not gonna work but we are going to make it work. -- used one image. To work for another so I have a little path that I made in the little path that -- created to select that little area of the the -- I turn it into a selection."
" And hacking going here and copy -- over. We'll copy I got it right over into this scene over here and there it is a falls right at the place now it's much smaller. So I didn't get reducing -- basically what I'm doing is I've taken from one place to solve the problem in -- of so I have this little glass here. So I do it is that's get a little close and so we can see what's gonna happen here and we're gonna scale it -- my scale. Transform scale and and a poll decides how to make that report the bottom down. Just again maybe it would mean higher there and let's -- besides that again genocide that. Now filled a glass except that's white wine we need to make it water. So this happens to be a CM -- file. So on a different way of adjusting callers talk of print here. So when -- go into my adjustments. And going to go to Mike -- Now I happen to know. If you said the study you'll burn it to if you study an image that what I have to pull back on here to make it look -- was going to be my magenta and my yellow and black people's dreams are what keep that scene that we see back in -- And pillars and stuff -- the room I want to keep those. -- keep that clear so want to pull back on my. Yeah well and -- magenta. And go here to those particular -- to magenta and I'm gonna pull back on that particular color. Pull back on it and you see what's happening. I'm just gonna get it'll. -- and an album on my. Yellow and a pullback on the yellow as well. And I thought the pullback you can see that it's starting in -- bluish. So it's gonna get more of them looked like war goes back quite a bit. There click okay and now I can start starts to look like Warner however I had this let's -- layer and glass effect it's going look at that. Let's take this way it feels nice players in the class. I'd like to bring those back. So. And -- that later when you're doing double click on it to bring up the layer styles and down here in the -- if modes when there was -- For underlined there. Stuff underneath. Which is the glass. I'm going to pull back on the lights fighters saying don't hide these particular values. -- unacceptable these sliders if -- at the white tones start to come back to the an account in Baghdad. Now going to option split the slide. All non PC. By splitting the slider -- gives me the ability to go into it and soften up the transition of those players so that the has become little hints on top of my water. Click okay. Yeah we see that we have water in the glass that before was and the so now. As talk about reflections on a sphere and his opinion that they wave back in 1988 and -- computer years that's ancient. -- almost ten years ago."
" Rezulin on the marble right here is the Myanmar was -- affection right down the edge as a reflection on the -- Now. Creating a reflection on a sphere. Is. Not difficult. But it has to be fought out. -- here I have a file where the marble and I have the message I'm gonna go in there and distort this match so that it. Goes into that those fear that we don't have warp. We do have all these different ways of the story so but the case like this Blogosphere. So ever felt the call some rights which is gonna be perfect for this to -- is gonna go into. The filter. And on to distort I have sphere it's right there."
" Little when the comes up so something happened there now the digital bag carriers see that's how it's here right. Leave it -- to pick up today and through today it it just made them match kind of -- that's undo that. He said it -- sphere in that box was round like that. But the grid with square. This big square night images square also. Rectangular anyway when a way to do is I'm gonna take my match. And move over to the side. Over to the side revenue in the center of the original move over to the side and now I'm gonna apply that filtered and distort. -- Before what happened right here you can see in this area here that's what happened it -- out. But now that the matches here along the edge the effect is gonna be very different and if we look at the preview you can see what's gonna happen. I click okay and look a totally different effect. And -- and move it up a little bit like that. And to say filter cigarettes to say do it again. Which is command act by the way option command F. We'll apply -- both of them bring up the dialog box you might want to make it change I'm just gonna leave it ads is click okay and looked distorted it even more. So now I can take this guy and that's shrink him down it's going to transform. It's film. Make -- much smaller. Like that. A moment here. And put right in India edge and a clip it. And create flipping group by Obama option alt key and click in between two layers so it's trapped inside and then bring that its capacity this system and although the reflection on the side of the sphere. Remember. It's the actual stats to techniques that are involved here how you apply them. Colorized. Most of use they can all be used to solve different problems. In this case where we did it to some. A glass is that they edit some water and now we took a model and and an infection something onto it. That if you take some kind of a street scene you can use an infection even if the plane flat plane of window. Put the picture in their bring down the capacity but remember its reflection so before you do that flip it horizontally so the words on that street will be in reverse. Again these things you find out -- just looking at the world around you and I learned. How popular something from this one hope to see you next week remember to play that's where donors is there and play with this stuff have fun. See you next week."
" Oh and by the way. If there's something else that you not sure of something that's been bugging you and you trying to figure out on your own. I'm sure how to do it so I mean he -- to -- at revision3.com. If you ask me. Meaning Allah try to answer -- show."
